Margaret Callaghan

Margaret Callaghan was born in Ireland and married Peter McCormick, a Scotsman. Their daughter Mary, Ben's 2x-great-grandmother, was born in Ireland around 1871 or 1872 and came to the United States as a girl, about 1884 or 1885. She was working as a dressmaker in Philadelphia when she married Peter Paul Bedesem in 1898. Nothing more about Margaret's life has been found.
